Arch Bishop Godswill Onyeuwaoma Omoke of the Presbyterian Church of Nigeria, Abakaliki, Ebonyi State, has laid his in-law to rest at the age of 78 years, describing her as a virtuous woman and the best mother inlaw everyone will ever wish to have.

Arch Bishop Onyeuwaoma disclosed this at Central School Okposi Okwu, during the funeral rites of his mother-in-law, the late Mrs. Hannah John Eze Aja who died at the age of 78 years.

He described his mother-in-law as the best woman anybody could associate with, saying that her utmost sense of commitment and dedication to serving God and the well-being of her family members is unimaginable. 

According to Onyeuwaoma, a lot of people view death as horrible but in reality, death is one of the things that gives life meaning, saying that his mother-in-law’s love for him and their children is unique.

`To everything, there is a season, and time to every purpose under the heaven; a time to be born, and a time to die…Ecc.3:1–2.

`A lot of people view death as horrible but in reality, death is one of the things that give life meaning, ‘Ogoma’ As I used to call you, your love for me and my children was beyond measure.For me, you were the best, if I am to have another in-law, I will still come back for you.Words are not enough to describe your qualities,` Arch Bishop Onyeuwaoma said.

According to her first son, Mr. Aja Eze Aja, while reading her biography, late Mrs. Hannah John Eze Aja( Nee Okereke) was born 78 years ago into the legendary family of Onyiba Okereke Oguduome, famously known as Onyiba Nkachu of Ogoachi Enuegu , Okposi Okwu in Ohaozara Local Government Area of Ebonyi State.

Earlier in his sermon, Rev. John Utum charged Christians to always live a life that will please God as no one knows when he or she will be called home, explaining that death is inevitable to every mortal but where you are going after here, matters a lot since there is a reward for every work on earth.

The burial ceremony was attended by dignitaries from all walks of life including the executive governor of Ebonyi State, Blder Francis Ogbonna Nwifuru, amongst others.
